No, but you can start locally and watch the dominoes fall. Take GDPR for example: EU mandates it so companies fall in line, and now California has their own version (and hopefully we'll see other states & countries follow suit). Forcing a company over a hump can certainly start a movement in the right direction. If the US were to outright ban single-use plastic bottles (which I think they should), these companies would have to make a huge shift in the way they source and manufacture materials and this would lessen the resistance to other countries doing the same.
